Chapter 399: A Sharp Turn (1)

Liyang is crazy, and the old emperor is also crazy, this is the opinion of 300,000 Xu Ziqi!

A statement in Tai'an City from Liyang is becoming more and more intense, and the reason why Xu Xiao did not move at the west barrier is because this man secretly agreed to the proposal of the Great Chu Emperor to divide the river and rule. The general who played the role of 300,000 troops, Xu Xiao wanted to establish himself as the king, and he had reached a secret agreement with Da Chu...

This kind of rumor is undoubtedly ridiculous, but the gossip in the capital is overwhelming, and there are several extremely heavy spy reports sent to the emperor, and the spy report insisted: The secret letter written by the Emperor of Great Chu and stamped with the seal of the country is placed on Xu Xiao's bookcase, and he wants to rule the world with Xu Xiao.

Indeed, the two armies have been facing each other for too long, and it has come from nine cold days to the rainy season. Xu Xiao recognized this opponent as soon as he saw Ye Baikui, and Ye Baikui did not disappoint Xu Xiao, nailing 300,000 Xu Jiajun to the west wall for half a year, so that he fell into a war of attrition that Xu Xiao did not want to see. The old emperor still believed in Xu Xiao to a certain extent, but Liyang was about to be unable to support the loss of 300,000 troops. Since you, Xu Xiao, can swallow 120,000 euphorbia warriors in less than ten days, why can't you take the West Base Wall in half a year?

The current Liyang Dynasty is completely out of control, and Gu Jiantang, who is a meritorious military general and a young man, also chooses to look at Xu Xiao coldly. Gu Jiantang, who originally promised to encircle Dachu with Xu Xiao, is still in Dongyue now, and there is no sign of stepping into Dachu. In this way, no one in the Manchu Dynasty was willing to speak for Xu Xiao, but instead started the most popular infighting in Da Chu:

Xu Xiao confronted the prince in China;

Xu Xiao indiscriminately killed innocents in other countries;

Please ask the emperor to quickly recall the 300,000 troops stationed in Xileibi, otherwise Xu Xiao will be in danger of leaving Yang once he has a heart of disobedience and colludes with Dachu!

So, what should have happened happened...

The most elite post man in Liyang rode the old emperor's beloved sweat and blood horse, and the one headed by him carried an eight-hundred-mile urgent holy decree, and there were only four words on the golden silk silk: or fight, or retreat!

The old emperor had two choices for Xu Xiao, either to fight to the death with Ye Baikui, even if he fought all the 300,000 troops to the west wall, he didn't care, so that Xu Xiao could spend his old age in Tai'an City, and the old emperor could arrange Xu Xiao no matter how he wanted; Another option is for the 300,000-strong army to retreat. In terms of results, there is not much difference from the first choice, after this retreat, Xu Xiao will lose the opportunity to lead the troops in this life. However, because he obeyed the holy decree, the old emperor would not be stingy with Xu Xiao.

Of course, Xu Xiao can continue to choose to confront Ye Baikui at the Western Barrier, but he will lose all the trust of Emperor Liyang.

There are many people who can see the essence of this matter, but only fourteen veterans are really willing to say a word for Xu Xiao. The person at the head is named Feng Ling, who was born in Liaodong and is reckless, Jiazi is old, and he became a high-ranking official of the third grade by relying on real military merits the year before last; Zhu Changfu, the founder of the Fish Drum Camp; Zhang Dujian, who has just retired from the position of the standard commander of the lotus seed camp... The old man who survived a hundred battles, after the rain of bullets and bullets, did not die, and on this day fourteen people killed themselves outside the palace.

The old emperor's holy decree and fourteen old soldiers of the Beiliang Iron Cavalry committed suicide in Tai'an City, and the two news were transmitted to Xu Xiao of the western barrier together. Xu Xiao almost smashed the holy decree in his hand on the spot, and took the lives of his fourteen brothers on this piece of rag.

The old emperor Zhao Yin is a person who wants both inside and face, since Xu Xiao's fourteen brothers vouched for Xu Xiao with their lives, then the old emperor will tolerate Xu Xiao for another fourteen days. Fourteen days later, the old emperor will have a gold medal a day and a holy decree a day until he forces Xu Xiao to death.

Xu Xiao can treat the old emperor's holy decree as a piece of waste paper, but some people regard the holy decree as their own father!

Before the holy decree arrived, Zhao Bodang, the general in charge of the northwest defense line of the western barrier, as one of the few royal generals, secretly talked to Da Chu, so that Da Chu knew the content of the holy decree before Xu Xiao. Not only that, as soon as the Liyang Holy Decree arrived, Zhao Bodang didn't care whether he would kill 300,000 Xu family troops, and gave up the strategic place of the concubine's tomb to Dachu Ye Baikui, and even retreated six hundred miles in one go, as if he was afraid that Xu Xiao would come to find trouble for him...

In other words, when Xu Xiao got the holy decree, the 300,000 Xu family army had become completely alone. Even Xu Xiao couldn't send troops to get back the concubine's grave, because Zhao Bodang had already completed the deal with Ye Baikui. Zhao Bo withdrew with his front foot, and a few minutes later Da Chu occupied the concubine's tomb.

Now it is no longer a matter of the crumbling wall of the Great Chu West Wall, but the 300,000 Xu family army is very likely to overturn in dozens of days!

Xu Xiao and Ye Baikui confronted the west barrier, and the northeast direction of the west barrier should have been Gu Jiantang, but the general seemed to want to go further, and he was willing to send troops to Dachu until Xu Xiao was defeated or died. However, there are hundreds of thousands of elites of Gu Jiantang lying on the border between Dongyue and Dachu, which gives Dachu considerable pressure. If Gu Jiantang is still a little useful, then this Zhao Bodang has been a fart from beginning to end, and he has not dragged Beiliang Tieqi back. After paying hundreds of thousands of casualties, Xu Xiao broke through dozens of large and small cities of Great Chu all the way, and the Battle of Jinghe ate 120,000 halberds in one go, and then sent troops to the west fortress non-stop, forcing all the last essence of Great Chu in this fortress. But what did he Zhao Bodang do? At the beginning, not to mention all kinds of avoidance of the frontal battlefield, when Xu Xiao trapped Ye Baikui's elite in the western barrier, Zhao Bodang "snatched" the northwest defense line from Xu Xiao's hands, and pinched the concubine's tomb in his hand, which was crucial to the safety of the flank of the Beiliang Iron Cavalry, and now he gave the strategic place that should have belonged to the Beiliang Iron Cavalry to Ye Baikui...

Because of Gu Jiantang's inaction, because of Zhao Bodang's disregard for the overall situation, the battle of the world had to be advanced, whether Da Chu became the overlord of the Spring and Autumn Period again, or Liyang dominated the world, we will see the final in the next month.

The soldier saint Ye Baikui did not live up to his title of soldier, and 20,000 light cavalry and 40,000 heavy cavalry were arranged in the concubine's tomb, gaining unprecedented strategic depth for Dachu. If Xu Xiao does not divide the tombs of the soldiers and concubines, then the back road of the Beiliang Iron Cavalry will be cut off, just like Xu Xiao cut off the 120,000 halberds before; If Xu Xiao divides the concubine's grave, then Ye Baikui can take the lead in the frontal battlefield of the Western Barrier.

You must know that although Xu Xiao claims to be 300,000 Xu Jiajun, Liyang has never replenished the Xu Jiajun. Not to mention the previous series of battles, it was the scattered battles with Ye Baikui in the past six months, which also caused Xu Jiajun to lose a lot. On the other hand, Ye Baikui, Da Chu has already sent all the young and strong men in the country into the battle array.

Under the advantages of the other, Ye Baikui can completely calculate the combatable soldiers of the Beiliang Iron Cavalry. Therefore, this soldier saint put out his soldiers and horses in the concubine's tomb, waiting for Xu Xiao to come. If there is less of it, eat it in one bite. If there are too many, then they will crush the Beiliang Iron Cavalry in front of them in one go.

Yes, just crush, not crush. If you want to defeat Xu Xiao head-on, it is almost impossible to accomplish. Therefore, Ye Baikui must be defeated, as long as the Beiliang Iron Cavalry is greatly reduced, Xu Xiao will not be far from failure...
